A Crowbar bar protection that shorts the output. Both these circuits come into effect once a DC level of 10 volts or more is detected on either channel. The LAB.GRUPPEN amplifier runs very cool due Design features to a patented heat sink called Intercooler .

Appendix A Mains voltage selection LAB 2000C is normally shipped for 230 volt AC operation only. For export there is a 115/230 volt AC option available. To check if the amplifier is equipped with this option, please follow these steps: Make sure that the LAB 2000C is unplugged from the mains voltage.
